WHAT:

Evening of Comedy with Tim Hawkins, Cleto Rodriguez and HimProv.
 

WHO:

Tim Hawkins, one of the most in-demand comics in America, noted for his ‘clean comedy’ which appeals to multi-generational audiences, with a blend of gifted and twisted humor.

Cleto Rodriguez is one of the fastest-rising comics in Texas. He started his standup comedy career in San Antonio and currently works in venues throughout the nation.

HimProv is a family-oriented, Christ-centered improve troupe based in North Dallas.
 

WHEN:

Saturday, Jan. 24, 2009

WHERE:
Bent Tree Bible Fellowship
4141 International Parkway
Carrollton, Texas 75007
www.btbf.org
 
DETAILS:   

With an arsenal of high-energy stand-up, physical comedy, slick guitar skills, a thousand faces and voices and improvisational chops, an evening with Tim Hawkins adds up to an insane comedy experience. “People think I live a rock-star life,” Hawkins said. “Believe me, Mick Jagger never gets lost in a Hertz parking lot looking for his Ford Focus.”

Hawkins’ art form was honed primarily in churches, with an audience ranging from little kids to youth groups to married adults. He found he had to develop material that would hit a wide age range. “I learned comedy in front of a lot of multi-generational audiences, so I had to find material that would cater to all ages,” Hawkins said. “It’s a thrill to provide a family connection where they can share the experience.”

Tickets are $8.00 each (or $5.00 each for groups of six or more), available through www.itickets.com, at the kiosk in The Crossing at Bent Tree, or $12.00 at the door.
